Landon's big graduation day from Puddle Jumpers

Well, today was a big day for Landon as he graduated from the Puddle Jumpers (mommy & me program) that we've been going to every Wednesday since October. He's had such a great time and we've come to just love Ms. Janie and Ms. Courtney and all the fun, learning things we do every week.

i can't sleep...

you wonder why i can't sleep and it is 10 minutes before 2:00 a.m.? well, would it have anything to do with the fact that i am slightly wired from a starbucks white chocolate mocha with 4 shots of espresso? hmmmm, let me see? YES! well you see, when we were heading to Columbia, SC the past Wednesday night, i was going to do the driving, so i used the last of my christmas money to treat myself to a starbucks coffee because you see that is a HUGE treat and i thought that with such a nice treat it would keep me nice and awake for the long 3 1/2 hr. drive ahead of me. but ah-ha-ha-HA...after taking about 3 tablespoons worth of sips, the jitters began as well as the hyperactivity, hence, i stopped drinking my beloved starbucks and decided i might as well just stick it in the freezer to enjoy a frappacino at a later date...which would be tonight, thus comes this ridiculously timed post. i can't say there is any rhyme or reason to it other than the sheer disappointment over the fact that i am NOT sleeping and my idea of beginning my walking/running program to FINALLY get in shape is not at all turning out like i hoped and planned because i will sadly NOT be getting up within an unreasonable hour! i suppose i shall go now and turn an episode of the ever hysterically hilarious favorite WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU! if anyone else is up at this hour-nice to see you!

well, today is my very first post on our new family website! i thought this would be a great way to share up to date news about our family and pictures.

well, where do i begin? january seems to be a get back to normal month from all the busyness of the holidays, but unfortunately, ours has not been so quiet! it's been filled with lots of driving to and from south carolina with a family situation more of which i will post later.

jason just started a new leadership position at his boss, mike's, original chick-fil-a, so we'll keep a play-by-play of all that is happening there.

landon will be getting a new speech therapy coach and we are now in the beginning processes of looking into preschools for landon.

bree is her cute little chubby self, starting to wobbly run around and finding a new fascination with the garbage can again!

as for me...well, i will be starting to teach piano to 5 kids which i am so excited about...more on that later too!
